Greetings from Boulder

DSCF5607

Getting ready this morning to head to the Reggae on the Rocks Festival at the legendary Red Rocks Ampitheatre in Morrison, CO. Your friends and mine GPGDS are opening the show, playing at their biggest venue (both in terms of prestige and audience) yet. We caught up with bassist extraordinaire Jamie/James last night and hit the Boulder nightlife. Also ran into other members of the GPGDS ensemble:

and had some yummy, fruity pebbles encrusted frozen yogurt. Looking forward to a great bunch of shows today; Lee "Scratch" Perry, Fishbone, and The English Beat (or "Mirror in the Bathroom" fame) are all playing after Giant Panda, along with some other legends of reggae. Good times ahead; of course, first we must go have brunch with Beck's internet friends. Don't ask. Regardless, it's quite nice to be enjoying highs of 78 in these mountains as opposed to the Valley-ish alternative.

More posting to come - I am predictably mired in the start of a hectic ASU semester - but in the meantime, check out who ran into one another at Chautauqua earlier this week!

Alright, on to the tunes! And fear not, haven't forgotten about myriad promised reviews. We saw the quite excellent Inglourious Basterds last weekend, too, so yeah, much to write in addition to theses prospecti. Ugh.
